As Marshall sat-well floated- in his seat with his guitar in his lap, he saw Gumball shift on the couch next to him slightly as he sighed out tiredly but continued to sleep. When they had got to Marshall's house, Gumball had been tired out by the travel and he couldn't blame the prince. He'd tried convincing Gumball to stay with him, seeing as his sixth month is ending and he was going into his seventh month, that it'd be easier for Gumball to stay at his place and allow the vampire to take care of him but Gumball declined, saying that if the baby were to come earlier than the due date that it'd be easier they be at the palace where the doctor could be there in a second and the baby would be watched over.
At the time,Marshall couldn't argue against it, couldn't say that it was stupid because the prince was thinking logically but it caused a sense of unease, even anxiety to bloom in Marshall with classic "what if's", like what if something did go wrong, what if Gumball couldn't handle it, what if the baby was born earlier etc etc. It's been driving the Vampire King so insane, with all these what if's, that he wished the baby would come soon and this would all be over and done with so he wouldn't have to be so anxious anymore.
Gumball shifted again restlessly, his large stomach half revealed from the shirt riding up and Marshall couldn't stop a small smile from creeping over his lips. He and Gumball had gotten into a fight-a rather huge one they hadn't had in a long time- about nothing really, Gumball had been cranky and it'd gotten on Marshall's nerves that he snapped and when Gumball snapped back they just started screaming at one another for no reason at all and then the gummy prince had passed out on the couch, leaving Marshall unable to apologize even if he wanted too.
He put his guitar down, the ax's edges glinting lightly once before he floated forward out of the living room, going up the ladder and down the small little hall there he'd put in to the room at the edge of the hall sighing. It was a nursery he had had help making, the little crib-er, bassinet as Fionna pointed out- with no theme color with a few stuffed animals laying about and a little play pen in the corner.
He and Gumball fought before he could show him the room, at the effort, which made him feel a surprise twinge of guilt in his chest as he looked down and sighed gently. Then he heard soft feet creaking against the floor following by a tiny noise making him look over his shoulder and he then blushed a bright, yet dark red of embarrassment when Gumball met his gaze, his head whipping side to side like he was looking for an exit but Gumball walked forward quick to Marshall grabbing his hand lightly.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have..well snapped. I'm just being a grump but...Glob, if I knew this was here when we got here I would've fought to be more pleasant." Gumball said then smiled bright at Marshall, who averted his gaze to the wall as he blushed deeply with the embarrassment.
"You sure know how to make someone uncomfortable and embarrassed don't you." Marshall dryly said blushing dark as he continued looking at the wall and Gumball chuckled gently moving in front of his floating figure, he wrapped his arms around Marshall pressing his temple to his chest softly.
"You're just a big softy, you know it." Gumball joked making Marshall's blush jump up a few degrees and he let out a little growl as his arms wrapped themselves around the prince.
"Shut it." Marshall gruffly said as he blushed making the pink haired male laugh out again grinning and he pressed his warm cheek against Marshall's chest.
"You know you love me." Gumball's voice was muffled as he buried his face into Marshall's chest deeply and the vampire's blush decreased-finally!- as he sighed out kissing the top of Gumball's head gently.
"Of course I do, it's why I'm here right?" Marshall offhandedly said before he blinked gently, a sudden realization suddenly forming in his head. "Hey, Bubba?"
"I'm tired of you calling me that, but what?" Gumball sighed out as he tilted his head back looking at Marshall's face then furrowing his brows tightly.
"Marry me." The two words made the entire room, the entire world, freeze as Gumball's eyes widened considerably as he looked at Marshall who looked back at him seriously.
"Are...Are you serious?" Gumball choked out finally as his cheeks burned softly while looking at the vampire as said vampire's lips twitched gently as he nodded.
"No, Bubba, I'm not serious. I mean, I'm here, you're here, there's a baby, large amount of time so I just thought 'Oh what the flip, nothing better to do in my life than get married!' and decided to say it." Marshall's voice just dripped with a huge amount of sarcasm that made Gumball want to surprisingly laugh but Marshall leaning down pressing their lips together softly, the kiss turning into the same spine-tingling one. Then the vampire pulled back looking at Gumball intently enough that the prince's cheeks burst into fresh flames."I'm serious, Gumball, I want the both of us to get married. Preferably after the baby's born obviously. I don't think we could squeeze this into a clothes." His hand caressed Gumball's stomach as he said the words making the prince scowl but grin gently.
"If you're serious, deadly serious," Gumball said as he looked at Marshall who nodded softly looking at the prince still his gaze not wavering in he slightest bit to prove a lie if there was one and his lips turned up into a soft smile. "Then I'll have to say yes, won't I?"
"Yes you will." Marshall said grinning in his usual way as his thumb feathered across Gumball's lower lip softly making him his in a breath as Marshall's grin widened.
"Then yes, I'll marry you Marshall Lee." Gumball said blushing but his lips pulled into a full smile that always got the Vampire King's heart throbbing when he saw it, because this smile was something that Marshall did and was just for him and him alone.
"Good, because I wasn't going to take no as an answer." Marshall chuckled gently then pressed his lips to Gumball's again into a deeper, more slow and provactive kiss that had Gumball moaning quietly with his arms wrapping up adjusting themselves to Marshall's shoulders and his fingers to bury themselves into his hair. When Marshall pulled back his eyes were half lidded and dark with arousal, Gumball was flushed and trembling softly as Marshall's fingers found their way under his shirt making electricity seem to crackle through his veins.
"Marshall." It was his name alone that made Marshall want to surprisingly growl and just push the prince to the floor, to be inside of him and moving giving them both a huge amount of pleasure and as many orgasms as he could provide before he couldn't stand. "Marshall!"
"What?" Marshall managed to get the word out as he blinked away his lust as best as possible then looked into the prince's violet eyes.
"I'm hungry." Gumball sounded meek and the vampire laughed loudly when Gumball's stomach growled at him, like a monster demanding to be fed.
"Fine, I'll get you some food then. What do you feel like devouring today?" Gumball narrowed his eyes angrily and yet there was humor shining in his eyes softly.
"Something with meat, or something along the lines of that." Gumball dryly said as he kept his eyes narrowed at Marshall who laughed again then pressed his lips to Gumball's neck making the prince shiver ever so softly.
"Alright I guess I'll make you some food, after all you did say yes to my request. Wow, that kind of rhymed!" Marshall snickered at the fact that he had kind of rhymed while Gumball just rolled his eyes chuckling gently a bit.
"You're so stupid sometimes." Gumball chuckled out before he gasped into a deep, open mouthed kiss that Marshall ensued, his skin bursting into flames when Marshall's tongue stroked against his own softly only to explore the rest of his mouth making Gumball moan softly when the vampire pulled away.
"Still think I'm stupid now?" Marshall growled out as his fingers dug into Gumball's hips rather hard and tight but also possessively. "I can have you on your back, legs open and ready for me in seconds, just you remember that." That had a breath being hissed in through Gumball's lips as Marshall grinned.
"You're also so..."Gumball couldn't think of anything to say when Marshall chuckled which ended in a growl as his lips pressed to Gumball's neck again then dragged his teeth against the sensitive part of Gumball's neck causing the prince's head to fall as a soft moan left his lips.
"I'm so what? I don't think I want to feed you now. And I also don't think you're hungry for food right now." Marshall growled as his teeth slid over the slope of Gumball's neck again making the prince moan softly and his member to twitch and stiffen, pressing tight against his pants.
"Stop. I'm really hungry." Gumball whined out making Marshall sigh softly in what sounded like irritation but he lifted his head then floated to the door way.
"Fine, fine. Let's get you some stupid food." Marshall grumbled under his breath making a feeling of guilt prick at Gumball strangely as he followed, his stomach snarling softly when he grinned gently.
"Marshall?" Marshall paused turning his head as Gumball spoke meeting the prince's eyes evenly. "After I eat, then you'll give me some relief and as many orgasms as you can provide, or I'll rip your arms off you hear me?" The vampire's eyes seemed to flash and brighten yet darken with arousal and lust as his breath came in a hiss and his own lips curled into a wide grin.
"Is that a threat, your highness?" Marshall asked sarcastically yet coyly as he looked at Gumball with a large grin.
"No, it's not a threat. It's a promise. Now the sooner you feed me the sooner this can take place." Gumball smirked just as coyly and walked to Marshall with a blush only to climb down the ladder slowly and carefully smirking to himself. He could be just as seductive and alluring as Marshall could be and he'd prove it again and again if he has too.
